Met Romeo from Rotex who was commissioning Rotex unit, Billy the plumber was commissioning Maico unit also so the services cupboard was full.
rotex unit is not that easy to get calibrated, odd in that it doesn’t have a room thermostat.
Possible issue of oversizing of boiler in Rotex, apparently it winds down to 8kW but this is perhaps high given expected heat loss of house.
Shower waste water heat recovery unit in place, discussion about how they may be best used in swimming pool showers where flow of waste water is high but highly dependent on usage of hot water as to payback time…
house very nearly finished now.

Project overview

This project is one of the winners of Retrofit for the Future, a competition launched in 2009 by the Technology Strategy Board (TSB), a UK public body that promotes technology innovation. Retrofit for the Future is a competition to cut carbon emissions in social housing, looking for integrated solutions rather than the use of single technologies.
The house is located in Hawthorn Road, in the London Borough of Haringey. The existing house is divided into two separate flats, which will be combined into a single 3 bedrooms house.
